Israel Falsely Claimed Footage Showed Doll, Not Dead Child, Palestinian Journalist Says
The Israeli government and many of its high-profile supporters have falsely claimed that Hamas published footage of a doll and suggested it was a child killed by Israel’s military, according to a Palestinian journalist who published the video.
“Hamas accidentally posted a video of a doll (yes a doll) suggesting that it was a part of casualties caused by an IDF attack,” Israel’s main Instagram page claimed Friday. That post received more than 52,000 “likes,” and a similar post from the country’s page on X, the site formerly known as Twitter, received more than 1.3 million views, according to both sites’ public-facing metrics.
Other social media accounts controlled by Israeli officials, including those for the Israeli embassies in France and Austria, have made similar claims.
However, Momen El Halabi, the journalist who published the video on Oct. 12, says the footage did indeed show a dead child.
In messages to HuffPost, El Halabi said he filmed the scene himself, and that his footage showed “a child victim and not a puppet like the occupation claims.”
